For a while I was very confused on the pronunciation and difference of macaroons versus macarons, casually interchanging the names. Now after having made both, I can say that I can clearly differentiate a french macaron from a coconut macaroon, yet I'm still working on the pronunciation. If you want to know which one to start out making first, I would DEFINITELY say make a coconut macaroon because they are a lot easier and only need a few ingredients. Unlike french macarons,

What you need: 3 to 4 ripe bananas, smashed 1/3 cup (75 grams) melted salted butter 3/4 to 1 cup (145 to 190 grams) light brown sugar (depending on the level of sweetness you prefer, I always use the smaller amount) 1 egg, beaten 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla 1 tablespoon (15 ml) bourbon (optional) 1 teaspoon (5 grams) baking soda Pinch of salt 1 teaspoon (3 grams) cinnamon Up to 1/2 teaspoon (1 gram) nutmeg Pinch of ground cloves 1 1/2 cups (190 grams) flour What to do: 1.

Most of the time I decide what I want to make after seeing what I have in the fridge or pantry. I'm sure you can guess that I decided on this because I had a ton of sweet potatoes waiting to be used and two hungry parents waiting for dinner. This bowl is easily versitile, you can switch out grains and veggies in this and spice the chickpeas to your liking. This is a great bowl if you are looking for a quick healthy dinner recipe. You can even double the recipe and take the le

There's no better way to enjoy your favorite oreo cookie than in a donut form. These donuts have crushed oreos in the batter and sprinkled on top of a white chocolate frosting. Not only do these donuts look so beautiful, they taste amazing and are super easy. After making the batter just pipe it into a donut pan, bake, then dip and top. No mess with trying to fry these donuts, they are just like making mini cakes. This is a great chance to eat oreos in a different way as well

I made these churro doughnuts along with the galaxy and oreo doughnuts for my clubs donut day. They were really quick to make and closely resembled a churro dipped in chocolate. These are a great alternative to fried churros since they are baked in a doughnut pan. I would highly recommend making the chocolate sauce thicker by adding less milk so it coats onto the donut better. What you need: Makes 12-14 doughnuts DOUGHNUTS: 1/2 cup (125 g) butter, melted 1/3 cup sugar 85 g 1

Theres nothing like crispy fried zucchini in pancake form. I have had my eye on this recipe for a while, and then it came time when there were zucchini in my fridge just waiting to be used.

What you need: Makes about 10 (2 1/2 inch) fritters 1 pound (about 2 medium) zucchini 1 teaspoon coarse or Kosher salt, plus extra to taste 2 scallions, split lengt

There is no other way to introduce these brownies than... you absolutely need to make these right this minute and not share them with anyone. Throw out that boxed brownie mix in your kitchen cabinet and whip up these gooey, chocolatey, irresistible brownies. If I haven't convinced you yet, maybe the pictures can.

Not only have I seen these donuts all over social media, but I have wanted to make these for such a long time. So today I had nothing do to so I figured why not make some really interesting marbled donuts. Both making the cake and icing the donuts was pretty quick. What I had most fun with was the marbling stage. I added different colors to the white icing and then used a knife to swirl the colors into beautiful patterns. If only I had more than four colors to use... they wou

If you don't already know oatmeal cookies are a constant staple in my house. My dad doesn't like chocolate and all he ever requests is oatmeal cookies. Since I have no problem with making super yummy gooey cookies I almost always say yes. I actually found this recipe on a snapchat video from the Pioneer Woman and decided to break away from the oatmeal cookie recipe I usually use. These cookies had a lot of brown sugar in them which made them so yummy with the perfect texture

Almost once a week I go to this wonderful vietnamese restaurant called Bun Mee for lunch. They have great sandwiches, rolls, and bowls filled with rice, meat, cilantro, cucumber and more. They are so filling and unique and once covered in peanut sauce they will make your day so much better. I wanted to make a bowl of mine own that tasted similar to Bun Mee's and came across this very helpful building your own bowl recipe. It listed how to create a bowl starting with a starch,
